In emergency session

In an emergency session late, late last night (the film commission, like the House of Representatives, likes to do things when there is no one left awake to notice) the film commission was required to make several rulings regarding the Movies With No Kissing list. 

The most important of these rulings involved "The Dead Pool," the last of Clint Eastwood's Dirty Harry series. While noting the series should perhaps have ended one film earlier, it ruled the Movies With No Kissing list was all about movies with no kissing, not necessarily good movies, and so it has established a Dirty Harry exemption in the following rule amendment:

To be eligible for the Movies With No Kissing list, movies except Dirty Harry movies must not only have no kissing but also rate at least 60% on the Tomatometer. Deal with it.

Further, the commission ruled that biting people on the neck is equivalent to kissing when vampires do it, and therefore all vampire movies are ineligible for the Movies With No Kissing List by definition. Also documentaries, which are movies, of course, and often involve no kissing, are ineligible for the list because they are not movies your film commission plans to sit around watching much, if you see what we mean.

Finally, the commission wishes to go on record as being willing to consider a blanket trashy exemption at some future date.
